Fenway Park Celebrated at Possum Trot

Warm Up:  Jog around the tennis courts; circle up at lower area.  10 counts of each warm-up exercise including fozzy arm circles 10F, 10B, Windmills, Good AMs, Bill Buckner (in lieu of Cotton Pickers – great suggestion Mookie), and 20 SSH

 

The Workout:  Commemorating the Red Sox beating the Dodgers 8-4 in Game 1 of the 2018 World Series, the PAX knocked out 12 burpees OYO.  Q asked if anyone knew the height of the famed Green Monster:  37 feet.  We found a wall and held B2W for a Dauber 37 count.  Partnered up and headed to the paved road.  Fenway Park dimensions were discussed (see image), converted from feet to meters and rounded up/down based on Dauber’s public university education resulting in the PAX completing the following exercises jointly:  100 merkins (right field) while partner ran to the portapotty; 100 squats (left field) while partner bear crawled to/back to the FV sign and 150 LBCs (center field) while partner leap-frogged to the F-V sign, ran back.  Recovery – 10 counts were called out after completion of each shared exercise.  Green Monster back to the wall for B2W, this time with Gump counting to 37.  Gump was feeling particularly cheeky and could not find the numbers after 35 so Dauber called “recover” to the the PAX delight.  PAX moseyed to the Rock pile and circled up with a Med-large rock.  MN somehow ended up at Action Park and the majority of PAX had a chance to exercise with it.  Each PAX called out various 10-count exercises utilizing the rock.  After each rock exercise was completed, Dauber rotated the PAX position.  Exercises included:  curls for the girls, rutt-rows, chest extension, over the head press, tricep curl, one handed rock merkins, squats, Homer to Marge, American hammers (Amazing effort Banana Seat), a Farva Specialty (exercise name forgotten) and another incredible performance by LipSync.  (Rumor has it, he brought over MN from Mutiny).  PAX were entertained with numerous grunts, bodily function sounds, and one-off remarks (raising each other up) during these exercises.  PAX returned rocks to the pile and headed to the tennis courts.

 

Mary:  Each PAX called out a core exercise performing 10 reps.  Exercises included, Alphabet soup, canoe/boat, pickle pounders, burpees, fireman leg movement (ask Gump), wipers, WW IIs, merkins, low/slow flutters etc.

Announcements:  Added new announcement of “recognition.”  Recognized two brothers for completing Carpex CSAUP- great work R-22 and Farva, way to represent SOWake; also recognized LipSync for completing #8 of 12 half-marathons in 2018.  We are surrounded by “awesomeness “ – incredible men doing incredible things.  Well done!  Call out for better attendance at Kenny’s Grave on Th in F-V, HSHM Training, beer tasting/bottle share – Fall beers (check FB), possible screening of the movie Halloween on Oct 30 in HS (see FB)…

Prayer:  Ephesians 4:2. Be always humble, gentle, and patient. Show your love by being tolerant with one another.  Do your best to preserve the unity which the Spirit gives by means of the peace that binds you together.  Lots of injured men, family, friends; prayers for trooper KIA and his family; prayers for Messi 2.0 trying out for middle school athletics; silent prayers.  Double D prayed us out.

Honored and humbled leading this fine group of men as always.  -Dauber
